Criminals were using the flaw to stealthily install malware on the computers of users who visit compromised websites.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The problem, which affects Oracle Java 7 update 10 and earlier, can allow an untrusted Java applet to escalate its privileges, without requiring code signing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure>Java, which is running on 850 million computers, is a computer language that lets programmers write software using just one set of codes for computers running Windows, Apple OS X and Linux. Internet browsers use it to access web content and computers and other devices use it to run a plethora of programs.<\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In fact, Java is so ubiquitous that the software has become a major bull\u2019s-eye for hackers. Last year, Java overtook Adobe Reader as the most frequently attacked software, according to computer security firm Kaspersky Lab.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Mac users probably don\u2019t have to worry because Apple already removed Java plug-ins from OS X browsers. Apple apparently learned a lesson last year when it took its time making a Java patch available and as a result more than\u00a0600,000 Macs were infected\u00a0with malware.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Last February, Oracle released a fix for a targeted vulnerability identified as CVE-2012-0507 and included it in an update for the Windows version of Java. However, since Apple distributes a self-compiled version of Java for Macs, it ports Oracle&#8217;s patches to it according to its own schedule, which can be months behind the one for Java on Windows.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Mozilla also has blacklisted all current releases of Java.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oracle says Java Update Coming Tuesday!
